What was the law in question?

I haven't seen any reference to any legislation requiring a knock, let alone reference to such legislation being struck down by the court. Earlier court decisions said a knock and a wait was required by the 4th amendment, this current decision says the 4th amendment makes no such requirement. I'm inclined to agree, but even if we assume the decision is wrong in that regard I don't see where you get a case of "We approve the law, just won't let it be enforced."
